Can a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Home Health Aide (HHA) change a gauze bandage around my ankle?
In the State of Florida an aide can only change a non sterile bandage. If a patient asks for assistance and the doctor's order requires a sterile dressing than this is considered skilled nursing care and requires both a script from a physician and an LPN or higher. Only non sterile applications apply to the scope of a home health aide's or a certified nursing assistant's license.
